Moderna & The Global mRNA Supply Chain: Regulatory Lessons LearnedOne of the most important reminders I took away from Moderna’s experiences ushering its mRNA vaccine onto the global market is that a commercial manufacturing process must also be accompanied by a commercially ready supply chain. Though sufficient physical volumes of each raw material and a redundant supplier network are necessities, physical scale is not the only “CQA” for which we must account when commercializing our supply chain.

Sourcing Plasmid DNA From CDMOs Got More Challenging — Here's WhyThe demand for plasmid DNA products is intrinsically linked to unique market conditions and funding environments. Here's what's driving them.
SUPPLY CHAIN VIDEOS
In this Bioprocess Online Live panel, we discuss the current state of the mRNA supply chain for critical raw materials and manufacturing supplies and where pain points still exist.
In this clip, Sanofi’s Greg Troiano kickstarts our discussion on some of the advances he’s seen in the supply chain for linear mRNA-LNP products, both in terms of supply availability and supplier capability.
In this Advancing RNA Live clip, Sail Biomedicines’ Marc Wolfgang gives us a brief primer on the main differences and challenges in developing an IVT reaction for circular RNA, as opposed to linear mRNA.
Explore two functional areas that Advancing RNA panelists consider most essential to telling an RNA product’s “story” thoroughly to regulators.
